4-Year Graduation
At Florida Southern, we promise that you can graduate in four years. Follow a few simple guidelines and if you are unable to graduate in four years, FSC will cover your remaining cost of tuition until you graduate.
Junior Journey
You have our guarantee…an education from Florida Southern will take you places! Through our Junior Journey program, every FSC full-time undergraduate student completes an off-campus, learning experience to exciting destinations like Washington, D.C., the Caribbean, Costa Rica, England, France, and more. You can travel and earn college credit at the same time…often at no additional cost. How cool is that?
Engaged Learning
Looking for a lecture hall where you’ll learn amidst the masses? You won’t find one at Florida Southern.
Our students appreciate small classes that engage them with hands-on activities, discussions, presentations, guest speakers, and experiences designed to bring their education to life.
Our Faculty
Our faculty members are more than professors.
They are advisors… mentors… your partners in learning. They are also top scholars in their fields, and their greatest hope is to share their knowledge and experience with you.
Florida Southern's faculty members are dedicated to providing you with personalized attention and a truly outstanding education.

Who is your favorite professor?
Danie Taylor answered:
Mike Tracy! He takes the time to single out each individual
and give you the needed attention… Within the first week, he knew my name! I can easily talk to him, and he
makes the material so understandable… I really enjoy it…
Tina Schipani answered:
Professor Davis! He is so funny and has a way of capturing
all of the students attention! There's never a dull moment with that man. ♥
